How to Bunny Hop Tailwhip

WHIP HOPS CAN TAKE A WHILE TO MASTER. JUST REMEMBER TO KEEP YOUR WEIGHT RIGHT OVER THE FRONT END WHEN YOU KICK THE BIKE AROUND.

A bighop helps with whips for the obvious reason that it’ll give you more time in the air to spin the bike around. As you come up into the hop, kick the bike around with your back foot; give it a real good side swipe to set it off spinning. As you do this, don’t let the bike drift away from you. Instead, pull the bars in towards your legs and get your weight right over the bars. Click through to frame 3 to see this clearly.

Tip: “It is only through labour and painful effort, every ounce of grim energy and resolute courage, that you can land a bunnyhop tailwhip. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done.” John Wells – Ride UK BMX Sales Executive
